Justin Isosceles

Vintage: 2020
Description: Tasting Notes\r\nDeep ruby\/purple core with a black secondary color, and lighter toward the rim with moderate plus viscosity and slow-forming, moderately stained tears. Very aromatic and complex with ripe black cherry and cassis fruit, vanilla, cinnamon, and licorice spice with sweet tobacco, cedar, leather, and camphor notes. Full-bodied with ripe complex black cherry, boysenberry, cassis, and blackberry fruit on entry with baking spice. Dusty tannins appear on the midpalate with cedar, dried tobacco leaf, and saddle leather as it progresses. The finish is long, fresh, and balanced with notes of bay leaf, dried red rose petal, oak, and sustained tannins.\r\nThe 2019 Isosceles is a bold wine with ripe fruit and attractive savory elements, which balance each other perfectly. This wine is rich and complex enough to be enjoyed on its own, but is a perfect match with a classic filet mignon with traditional sides.\r\nBlend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot\r\nAbout Justin Winery\r\nOUR Vineyards - We planted our first vineyard back in 1981 with a mission to make world-class Bordeaux-style blends. Since then, we\u2019ve expanded both our knowledge of viticulture in this unique region as well as our acreage.\r\nSOIL - Rich in fossilized limestone from eons of marine deposits, JUSTIN\u2019s soil is ideally suited to creating big, Bordeaux-style reds. The limestone \u201cstresses\u201d the vines, producing grapes that fully express their varietal character.\r\nCLIMATE - Paso Robles\u2019 distinctive microclimate offers the widest day-night temperature swings of any grape-growing region in California. The hot days allow the grapes to develop intense flavor, while the cool nights create great structure and balance.\r\nOUR Winemaking PHILOSOPHY\r\nAt Justin, we combine traditional Old World methods\u2014like hand-harvesting and small-barrel aging in French oak\u2014with New World technology. For example: the \u201cAir Knife,\u201d an ingenious process invented by our winemakers, boosts grape quality and efficiency.\r\nOnce the grapes are harvested, our winemakers\u2014some of the best in the business\u2014gather to sort, select, age, taste, blend and decide what goes into every bottle.
